I have been researching my Almond line from Campbell County, Virginia for some time. I knew of Isaac Obediah Almond who moved to North Carolina later in life and with whom the family lost touch. I tracked him down in the 1930 census with his wife, Rebba and two daughters in Lowland, Pamlico, North Carolina.
Now I have, courtesy of the lovely folks from North Carolina who published their death certificates determined his wife was Reba James Jarvis and determined that he was buried in Holly Wood Cemetery, Lowland, Pamlico, North Carolina.
Obediah was born December 26, 1894 in Virginia and died July 4, 1957.
He was an engineer on the Sea Board Rail Road in Apomattox, VA before he retired.
I would love to know if he moved because of a family connection asI am always running into the Almond family in North Carolina, to marry Reba Jarvis or did he meet her there while working?
But most of all I would love to know if his grandfather Reuben H. Almond is buried in the same cemetery that Isaac is. I have always been told that Reuben H. Almond was buried in Lowland, North Carolina--but that was a bit too large of an area to search.
Hope this is coherent enough to post. Just found the death certificates and have been happily searching most of the night.
